Pete does a great job off the forums, he just needs the delete button disabled.

I change my vote to either bigtim or malakai.

:lol:

Seriously though, Todd organizes every cruise and organized a mad as skid pan day.

For QLD support on and off the forums Todd is the winner.

Pete was given moderating privileges in order to update and maintain posts within the Event Coordination section, and to have access to the private sections for moderators and admin. When he was granted these privileges, it was ONLY for use relates to event coordination, and he even stated that he wouldn't do any general moderation because we were doing a good enough job.

On a number of occasions, Pete has without prompting, permission and without advice or consultation from other moderators, deleted posts, threads and also unbanned members (his friends, some who have had bad transactions leaving other members out of pocket). He has deleted useful information and also incorrectly deleted threads, so they haven't been archived in the relevant invisible sections. When pulled up, he takes ages to respond or does not respond at all.

He has been a self appointed chief of events for a very long time, and he does that well - no argument there. But the upkeep of this forum rests in the hands of the proper moderators and admin; we choose what stays and what goes, and who stays and goes.

It may not seem like we have much of a standard but without the watchful eye of me, Dan, John and Gill this forum would be full of gumby **** and trolls. We have a very loose strategic direction of sorts.

So that's my life story. Typed on iPhone so excuse any poor use of English.

Anyone could've seen all this as personal until that post.

I'm happy to be a mod, mainly because now more than ever my time is valuable to me, and I don't want to spend it reading idiotic shit that only a couple of severely wasted stoners would find mildy entertaining. Or people not using the search function. And For Sale threads with little info and no pics etc etc.



I hadn't thought about it until tonight but I've been doing events and merchandise for nearly 5 years, albeit admittedly not consistently and definitely not to the level of what Pete and Beth have been doing.

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.

If people can't play by the rules,

Then they should be banned or get a warning no doubt about it.

Good Day all ---and good bye.
What is a DICKHEAD?
Is there no way to speak and write in a civilized manner as an example to others?

Why are there always some people who know all and do not even notice how stupid they are?

I tried to get help for my FAIRMONT NF -- was stopping all the time when it was "feeling" like it.
Problem solved - but not with any help here.

I will now log out and do not come back

I have been in over 70 countries - nowhere so many unqualified "specialists" as in Australia -- New carby installed in Sydney by a "specialist" fuel consumption was up. On the way to Mackay I stopped in every big town at tune up shops. Finally a customer in a shop has a look -and laughed. Choke connection was reversed ..

That is now 30 years ago and the mechanics I have met just do not know about the old FORD EEC Iv EEC V. I bought a book in the USA -$10. all running fine now

Not sure if bot or not. But I'm bored on night shift so I'll bite:

Going by your first post attitude, I think you got part of your username backwards, shouldn't it read Fairflog?

Every big town's tune up shops between Sydney and Mackay would result in hundreds of days of lost time to chase a "reversed choke connection"... Noice job covering 1800kms there. Beyond flooring it to start it how the fuark did you manage to travel that distance with the choke? Your plugs must've loved it :good: :good: :good:

How was a customer allowed to diagnose your vehicle's issue within a workshop? Oh, you've mentioned this happened 30 years ago, when this was probably a thing & everyone sank piss at brew time. Wait... I'll repeat: you mentioned this happened 30 years ago? Thirty. Years. Ago... Sick grudge skillz.

Congrats on your book purchase from the USA, you must be proud of yourself :clapping:

Fair flog.
